Hot Air Bloon is a Bloons spin-off game developed by Ninja Kiwi and released in 2008. The goal of the game is to control a monkey riding a blimp through an endless randomly-generated side-scrolling obstacle course while popping as many Bloons as possible to earn points.

A mobile version developed by Ninja Kiwi Europe (then known as Digital Goldfish) that features a story mode, more environments, and more obstacles was released in 2010.

Gameplay

Hot Air Bloon is controlled with only the left mouse button. Pressing it causes the blimp to rise and releasing it allows the blimp to fall. The blimp is constantly moving forward and gradually speeds up over time. The player earns points by running into Bloons with the blimp to pop them. The game ends if the blimp hits a tree, cloud, or bird.
